COMPOST!!!!




Our compost arrived the other day and boy was it some nice compost. We bought 30 yards from Kinney Compost in Knox, ME. Wes Kinney is a real sweetheart who really knows his stuff. We'd like to think he makes some of the best compost in Maine. All organic and natural, it has a horse and cow manure base with a number of additions from the sea. Wes turns the compost a number of times in its aging process and regulates the temperature to promote microbial activity while regulating weed seeds and ensuring that the compost never gets too hot. There was some compost on the property when we arrived but it isn't quite ready, so hopefully next season we'll be on a more self sufficient track in the compost department.
